We're building Australia's & Asia's First 40Tbps Sub-sea Network.

The Vocus Communications Australia Singapore Cable (ASC)
is under construction.

The ASC is a 4,600km submarine cable system linking Perth, Western Australia, to Singapore, via Indonesia.

The four-pair fibre network will deliver a minimum of 40Tbps of capacity and will offer an approximate 30% reduction in
latency from Sydney to Singapore compared to alternative routes.

The ASC, which is solely owned by Vocus Communications, extends the reach of the company’s 21,000km fibre network,
delivering connectivity, bandwidth and reliability to consumers and business as the world becomes more data-driven.

As of April 2018, the ASC is 78% complete. Alcatel Submarine Networks (ASN) is installing the
cable system, which is currently being laid by the ASN ship Ile de Batz between Christmas
Island and Perth in Western Australia. A second ship, the Ile de Re will start laying the
cable between Christmas Island and Singapore from April onwards.
